One, religion means identity to a lot of people.
Two, related to identity --- though not synonymous with it --- are the rituals, practices, forms and symbols of a religion to which most believers are attached, in one way or another.
Three, for many Asians religion is also the source of morality. It is the ultimate measure of right and wrong.
Four --- and perhaps most fundamental --- at a personal, intimate level, religion means faith in God, in a Divine Being, in a Transcendent Reality.
